1918 lincoln planchet clip found

SkidMark

Well I have finally done it I found my first mint error! Funny thing is I had it in my old album the whole time. I was working on a spreadsheet today making a list of what I have and BOOM a 1918 with a clip missing. Any ideas on what they are worth the coin looks to be vg-f Brown the clip is where "IN G" is in god we trust. I know its not the mother load but it is cool to finally find something. Thanks for any help.

Cool. Does it show the blakesly effect? How much of the coin by percentage (estimate) is the clip?

Honestly there's not much of a premium for low-grade clips, it is probably worth about $1-$2 depending on the size of the clip. If you can, please post a picture as a surprising number of early Lincoln cents with "clips," especially those in lower grades, are damaged and not Mint errors. In the beginning I got fooled on a bunch of coins, some purchased from reputable dealers.
